Clear Channel Outdoor's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Clear Channel Outdoor reported a carbon intensity of approximately 5.16 kg CO2e per $1 million in revenue, reflecting a decrease from about 6.27 kg CO2e per $1 million in 2022. This indicates a positive trend in reducing their Scope 1 and 2 emissions relative to revenue. However, specific total emissions data for these years has not been disclosed. Currently, Clear Channel Outdoor has not set any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of defined targets suggests that while the company is making strides in improving its carbon intensity, it may need to establish more concrete goals to enhance its climate commitments further. As a leading player in the outdoor advertising industry, Clear Channel Outdoor's efforts to reduce emissions are crucial in addressing the broader environmental impact of the sector. The company’s focus on carbon intensity metrics demonstrates a commitment to sustainability, although further transparency and specific reduction targets would strengthen its climate strategy.
